Refreshing a 2000 Boxster S

Hi,

My name is Yaron and I'm from Israel.

I have 2 Porsches. 2000 Boxster S and 1982 911sc. love them both

Just finished refreshing the Boxster, came out real nice.

You are invited to take a look at my album. Sorry, but all descriptions are written in Hebrew.

This is my biggest project until now.

Have a great day!

Yaron

Looks good. One of my favorite upgrades was putting a double din nav into the car.

Beautiful and great work!
I recently purchased my first Porsche (2000 S boxster), and it could use a refresher as well!

Again, well done, your car looks great!

Nice work, and it looks really good. Just my opinion, I would not use a K&N filter. Lower restriction = lower efficiency = more contaminants getting into your engine for a negligible benefit.

Thanks guys.

Kjc2050- Next routine maintenance I'll change to regular filter. had it in mind.

Looking for more power. any recommendation on adding more horses for low budget?

Thanks
Yaron

Great job

Seeing all that tile, I assume you did the work in your living room. Man after my own heart. So the next thing is the James Bond security system.

Dyno tune usually will fetch some more horsepower.
